Which music formats are accepted?

At SpaceMedia, we aim to ensure the highest quality audio distribution for our artists. As such, we accept the following music formats:

WAV: Preferred for its lossless audio quality. Ensure it's 16-bit (or higher) and 44.1 kHz.
FLAC: Another lossless audio format, often chosen for its compression benefits without sacrificing quality.
AIFF: Similar to WAV in quality but with metadata support.
MP3: While it's a lossy format, ensure it's encoded at 320 kbps for the best audio quality.
AAC: A lossy format, often used for streaming. Like MP3, the higher the bitrate, the better the audio quality.
ALAC: Apple's lossless audio codec.

It's essential to upload the highest quality source file possible. Doing so ensures that your listeners get the best experience, regardless of which platform or service they use to stream or download your music.

Before uploading, please check any specific guidelines provided by SpaceMedia for optimal results.
